Just a short note to know that I'll probably not be sending any kind
of ACK message out to the mailing list anymore when I apply patches
to my tree.  Instead, the patch submitter will get a message when it
gets applied, that contains a bunch of info about what patch it was,
and others that they have pending in my tree.

I'm doing this as I had been generating those "applied, thanks"
emails by hand, and have been getting tired of them, and I know that
some people were getting annoyed by this type of message (so much so
that they generated procmail filters to keep from having to see
them.)

Shucks, I liked those "applied, thanks" messages. Terse and to-the-point.

Especially true if there was a discussion WRT the patch(es). Sometimes it is nice to know if series have finally made it in even if you are not the author.

If you are cc: on the patch, you should be getting an announcement about it. And if you have any questions if a patch went in or not, please feel free to ask.


I'm just a end-user/non-usb programmer, and I like those messages too :)

It's much easier to follow if a patch has been accepted or not. YMMV.
patch tracking system may help.
